05 6.0 no start need help!!

I have 2005 6.0 f350 4x4 180,000 miles ive never had any major issues till now. truck ran fine then i went to start and crank but no start so the next day i tryed agin and started like a champ ran great. Then next day went to start and same deal crank no start and i have noticed that the injectors do not pre cycle so that might be my problem. i have no codes since this started i put new crank and cam sensor took my ficm to ed at ficm repair.com and replaced the whole engine harness. i have cam crank sync 1600psi oil cranking ipr 75% then 15% after pressure just put updated dummy stand pipes. all fuses and relays are good. just to be sure today i put my ecu and ficm in a buddys truck and injectors pre-cycled and started right up. so now im really lost also i have 60psi fuel. for some reason nothing is telling injectors what to do!!!!! and now i just ordered new injector harness all get in a couple days and ideas guy?

ipr at 75% suggests an HPO leak...

Do your injectors never cycle, or just sometimes?

could be the harness from ficm to injectors is not pushed in all the way or it could be busted wire harness.

U may have a point. Since ur FICM works in another truck, we can rule out the FICM. Connectors, harness, wires, etc. Tats wat I'm looking now. Could be a wire got chafed off or something shorted.
